Arsenal are still embroiled in a tense title race and their toughest game in the run-in comes on Sunday when they face Tottenham in the North London Derby.

Spurs will naturally want to damage Arsenal's title chances but they are playing for themselves, too, as they could still usurp Aston Villa into fourth to claim the last Champions League spot.

Current Form

Tottenham's current form

Tottenham's recent form has been sketchy as in their last five games they have won two, lost two and drawn one.

The two losses were particularly perplexing as they were demolished 4-0 by Newcastle last time out and prior to that were humbled 3-0 away at Fulham.

The two victories came against Luton and Nottingham Forest.

Arsenal's current form

Arsenal are coming off one of their best performances of the season as they embarrassed Chelsea with a 5-0 home victory during the week, with Martin Odegaard putting in a dazzling midfield outing.

Recent losses against Bayern Munich and Aston Villa saw them eliminated from the Champions League and suffer a blow in their title chances, though.

They've only failed to score in three of their last 11 games and two of those came against Bayern and Man City.

Tottenham vs Arsenal Team News

Destiny Udogie is out for the season after undergoing surgery, while fellow right-back Pedro Porro is struggling for fitness for the North London Derby.

Ange Postecoglou should be boosted by the return of Richarlison who has missed three weeks of action, which will likely mean Heung-min Son being positioned out wide instead of up top.

Manor Solomon, Fraser Forster and Ryan Sessegnon are all long-term absentees.

Arsenal came through the win against Chelsea unscathed which means their only absentee will be Jurrien Timber. The Dutchman has missed most of the campaign due to a serious knee injury, but he returned to action in an U21 game recently so might feature before the end of the campaign.

Key player - Tottenham

Heung-min Son has 21 goal contributions for Spurs this season.
